Sorry, American here. Did WW3 start and I missed it? Is it Ukraine/Russia? Israel/Palestine? Horrible though they are, they seem pretty contained this far, unless something new happened I haven’t seen anything about.

Trump invited Putin to invade NATO countries that “don’t pay”. So it’s actually worse in that Trump is asking Russia to start WW3.

*Salty Americans downvoting lol.

Ah, missed that. Yeah, I see where you’re coming from.

Note that neither of the world wars were referred to as such by anyone, even colloquially, until the fireworks really got going. And the beginning phases of both share some unsettling parallels with our current situation in a variety of ways.

How successfully or unsuccessfully the rest of the world is able to handle Russian (and, as a potential follow-on in the coming years, Chinese) expansionism and aggression may determine whether or not this ends up being “the Ukrainian War” or “the early phases of World War III” in textbooks written decades from now.

Dieterlan ,

I feel a little bad for such a short response, but fair enough. Good points all around.

Downvoted because I don’t want politics in ShowerThoughts. What is wrong with you?
